This serum is formulated with a potent complex of plant-based glycerin – a natural ‘moisture magnet’ and Shiso Leaf Extract, which helps protect against the degradation of Hyaluronic Acid that naturally occurs in skin, helping to anchor moisture where skin needs it most.

REN is launching their much anticipated Flash Rinse 1 Minute Facial. A transforming treatment that instantly revitalizes and visibly rejuvenates the skin. Formulated with potent, water-activated Vitamin C it neutralizes urban grey in a flash to leave skin looking firm, toned and smoothed while reducing signs of fatigue, photo-ageing and skin imperfections. Skin instantly glows with renewed health and radiance. The gel is applied to the face and massaged in for a few seconds before adding water. The water then activates the gel to deliver to the skin an intense shot of fresh, active and potent Vitamin C. Short term, Vitamin C dramatically brightens the complexion, evens skin tone and has an instant firming, toning and lifting effect. Longer term it stimulates collagen production to aid skin elasticity and firmness and helps to reduce oxidative and UV damage. This product is suitable for all skin types (except super sensitive skin) and will retail for R 470,00 in the REN SA online store and selected Woolworths stores nationwide. The REN Flash Rinse 1 Minute Facial will only be available in selected Foschini stores in October 2014.
L’Oréal Paris has created a luminescent makeup collection called L’Or Lumière infused with light and an irresistible aura of glamour. The collection features 3 metallic mono eyeshadows (Colour Riche Chameleon Mono Eyeshadow), 2 highlighter face powders (Lumi Magique Pearl Powder), 2 stunning liquid lipsticks (Colour Riche Lip Extraordinaire), 1 nail polish (Colour Riche Le Vernis) & 1 mascara (Volume Million Lashes Mascara). The whole collection will be available from September 2014 to December 2014 at Clicks, Dis-Chem & Foschini stores. The pricing of the collection items are indicated in the picture above (click on the image to enlarge).
The star of the collection, for me, is the Lumi Magique Pearl Powder (available in 2 shades). This is a highlighting face powder that has been compared to the Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powder – the shimmer you see on top is an over-spray and will disappear after a couple of uses, to reveal a mattifying face powder. The Lumi Magique Pearl Powder will retail for R 159,95 at Clicks, Dis-Chem and Foschini stores.
Gucci introduces Gucci Première Eau de Toilette, a lighter, brighter, more delicate incarnation of this memorable signature scent, to celebrate the thrill of everyday success. The fresh, sparkling fragrance combines presence and sensual femininity to endow the wearer with an unfading radiance. The initial bloom triggers a luminous elegance and effervescence, the orange blossom and the light citrus oils combine to give you a sensation that suggests the pouring of a cold bottle of vintage champagne into a tall, elegant glass. The elegant sparkle of the top notes slowly yield to the radiant white flowers at the heart of the fragrance of freesia, jasmine and soft Bulgarian rose. As the fragrances dries on skin, the subtle but tenacious warmth of leather, patchouli and musky notes complete the fragrance’s captivating charisma. Gucci Première Eau de Toilette will retail for R 700,00 (30ml), R 855,00 (50ml) and R 1195,00 (100ml) at your nearest Gucci stockist.

Filorga takes cleansing to a whole new level with a new Anti-Ageing Micellar Solution. The micelles in Filorga’s Micellar Solution are a cluster of molecules which act like a magnet, attracting dirt and secretions such as sebum and oil, gently cleansing without soap. Rhamnose also soothes the skin and reduces discomfort by limiting the transmission of inflammatory responses, whilst at the same time protecting the skin by restricting the adhesion of bacteria. Trehalose is a sugar occurring naturally in desert plants which protects the plant cells against dehydration in difficult conditions, allowing them to survive without water for extensive periods of time. Trehalose in Micellar Solution acts as a natural moisture reservoir,which allows the skin to absorb moisture and maintain hydration levels even in extreme climactic conditions. The Filorga Anti-Ageing Micellar Solution will retail for R 360,00 & will be available at selected Edgars and Red Square stores.
